In pursuit of a 430 Scuderia...hopefully

not sure if it's been posted here, but there's an 808 mile Scuderia Red Scud for sale outside of Boston for $195k...just to add another data point.

oh and the same dealer has a 300 mile 16M Rosso Corsa for $295k

 

Where is the link for this red scud in Boston so we can check it out

 

wasn't sure if it was okay to post a link..no affiliation, just to be clear.

2008 Ferrari 430 Scuderia | Copley Motorcars

2009 Ferrari 430 Scuderia 16M spider | Copley Motorcars

 

Cloth interior plus an 08 that's why it's 195... The 09 command a 10k premium and thd alcantera is also more desirable. Still a good price... Someone should snatch this up quickly

 

the seller needs the cash real bad or been in a crash on the 2008 scud , something is not right sorry

 

I don't entirely agree with this opinion.

Low miles does not equate to "perfect shape". In fact as most seasoned Scuderia owners on here know, a reasonable amount of driven miles over a reasonable amount of time is the better gauge of a scud's running condition.

95% of the time all the gremlins and issues have already been rung out on the more driven examples while the ones that have sat around the last 4-5 years pose a huge unknown ie hidden expenses ie downtime when car is in the shop etc a few more miles down the road. If you're buying it as a show piece then it probably doesn't matter, but if you're actually going to buy it to drive and enjoy on the road this should be very important. I personally wouldn't touch a car that has not been driven at least 2k miles a year, that's only 167 miles a month for pete's sake.

Edit: I know some folks will argue and say well as long as the fluids are frequently changed out then it doesn't matter if it sits. Well, a Ferrari master tech in Maranello once told me, just like a person, the car needs to be exercised regularly to maintain peak mechanical performance. So, just like a person, who would you think is healthier? A person fed nutrition through a tube all day and stranded on a bed? or someone who eats regular meals and does regular exercise?

 

highly doubt it's been in a crash, Copley is a top notch outfit. I was thinking seller needs cash bad because it seems the 16M was probably owned by the same guy. What are the chances of them having two extremely low mile examples of those cars at the same time? Not to mention it seems he wanted to preserve them, so why unload now before they appreciate unless he desperately needs to.

 

Good grief...let's speculate aliens are are play too...195k for an 800 miles red 2008 scud is fair asking price based on all indicators except 1 or maybe 2 zero mile preserved cars that sold much higher. Those exceptions aside, Keep wishing these cars are selling over 200k.

In 95% of transactions they most certainly are not.

Short bus special posters are simply deluded or more likely trying to distort the market by posting nonsense here. Either way, very lame.

PS - if you really want a demonstration of short bus idiocy, check one of these posters' posts on this topic going back a year or two...

The merits of leather over Alcantera was debated by us Scud owners a few years back. Desirability of either was pretty much split 50/50. In my case I preferred leather over the Alcantera. I do agree that if you plan to track, the Alcantera might be preferable by prospective buyers.

 

Haha! I wasn't sure if such aggression was warranted as I haven't followed the market, but I didn't like that guy's passive aggressive comment either. Lots of idiots on fchat lately. Think I'm done with this forum.

The troll speaks once again... Why don't you talk once you get one. Love my Scud jut got it and enjoying every minute of it.

 

Good luck buying the cheapest Scud for sale... Real smart!

 

He seems to acknowledge the risk he's taking/what he's getting into. Just because it's something you wouldn't do doesn't mean you get to chastise him for what he decides to do with his money....

Wow good price! Congratulations in advance very nice color and still looks fresh!

 

One things for sure- they know how to properly detail a car to make it shine!!

Good luck with everything!

 

Single track - that looks like your car...scud pricing model suggests $150k range...($160k if it has the US carbon package)...so the asking price is right where one would expect.

 

Did you see my buddy's ad here on Fchat?
Sorry but it sold quickly....
